Ink Travels Art Exhibit

Jan. 29-April 10

CAAH Dean's Gallery

M-F, 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m.

After 33 years at the University, Alumni Distinguished Professor of Art in Printmaking, Syd Cross retired this past spring semester. The exhibition, Ink Travels at the CVA-Greenville honored Cross' legacy and illustrated the positive impact she has had on artists across the nation. A group of her former students were selected to develop a print based on something they learned from Cross, whether it be about printmaking, art or life in general.

From 1996-2000, she served as vice president and then president of the Southern Graphics Council, the largest printmaking society in North America. She also has been awarded residencies at respected institutions around the world. Her work can be found in numerous collections such as the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Smithsonian Museum, Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, MO, Boston Museum of Fine Art, the Fogg Art Museum at Harvard University, the Museum of Fine Art in Antwerp, Belgium and the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C.
